Biometric event detection and annotation in electronic communication systems
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11971968B2) outlines an innovative electronic communication method that involves utilizing an electronic communication system to initiate a conference. The method includes establishing communication between a communication server, the conference, and participant devices, each associated with a unique conference participant. During the conference, participant devices transmit biometric information to the communication server, which records the conference and biometric data to create annotated recorded information. A biometric determination engine aggregates the data, comparing it to a threshold to detect biometric events, creating bookmarks in the recorded information. The annotated recorded information is then analyzed to identify bookmarks, conference content, and associated biometric events, providing insights to conference participants or presenters.
Furthermore, the patent includes additional features such as utilizing a context determination engine to analyze keywords within the recorded information, determining context, and further annotating the data. It also specifies that a predetermined number of participants must demonstrate the same biometric information within a set time frame to trigger a biometric event. The method ensures privacy by suppressing personal identifying information and authenticates biometric events with participants. The system includes components like a communication server, database, recorder, biometric determination engine, and comparison engine to facilitate the process of creating annotated recorded information with bookmarks for biometric events during electronic conferences, offering a unique approach to enhancing communication experiences.
